4 AM
2 Chains ft Travis Scott Lyrics

Yeah, yeah, yeah
Expressing agreement or affirmation

(M-M-M-Murda)
Producer tag of Murda Beatz

Yeah, yeah
Expressing agreement or affirmation

Damn right, bro
Acknowledging the truth of a statement

4 AM, I'm just gettin' started
Indicating that it's early in the morning and he is just beginning

For my birthday I threw me a surprise party
On his birthday, he organized a party that surprised him

Reminiscin' 'bout the trap, playin' the first Carter
Remembering the time he spent doing illegal activities while listening to Lil Wayne's 'Tha Carter' album

My life changed when I had my first daughter
The birth of his first daughter brought a significant change in his life

Got my first quarter flippin' fifty-dollar slabs
Made his first $250 selling $50 worth of drugs

Your nigga lookin' at the bills, askin' you for half
Your partner is looking at the expenses and asking for a share

Cut from a different cloth, take pride in results
Raised differently from others and proud of the outcome of his efforts

Anytime she wanna dip I'm providin' the sauce
Whenever the woman wants to leave, he will give her the means to do so

You on side of the boss, so you kind of the boss
You are on the same level as the boss, thus having some power

You keep playin' with me, I end up signing your boss
If you keep messing with him, he will end up signing your superior

Drop an EP on a nigga for the free-free on a nigga
Releasing an EP for free without cost

Yeah you ZZ on a nigga, king like BB on you niggas, yeah
Comparing himself to B.B. King, being dominant and successful

Ride with Champagne P
Referring to himself riding with Puff Daddy, who is associated with Champagne

If it wasn't for the struggle then I wouldn't be me
Acknowledging that he wouldn't be where he is today if he had not faced difficulties

Call me Deuce or Dos, anything but broke
Referring to himself by a different nickname but never want to be broke

Got my aim from the scope, got the game by the throat, damn
Having focus in life and being in control of the music industry

Okay, you popped up on me by surprise (yeah, yeah)
Being surprised by someone's unexpected appearance

You see I never took you for the poppin' type (straight up)
Didn't expect you to be so noticeable or successful

Damn, it's 4 AM so please believe the hype (it's lit)
Despite the early hour, he is lit and ready to go

Hit the lights (yeah), I'm way over top
As he hits the switch and the lights go off, he is elevated to a higher level

Pop it, flick it
Popping a bottle and flicking a lighter for smokers or fire enthusiasts

Drop a pin, send a location (skrrt, skrrt)
Sending a location so someone can meet him

I'ma pull up in that bullet-coupe spaceship (skrrt, skrrt)
Arriving in his luxurious and fast car

Drop off a bag of some dangerous (yeah)
Delivering something illegal and dangerous

I'ma hit you, 4 AM, see if you make it (yeah)
Giving someone a challenge at a difficult time

I dropped ColleGrove out the sky, ooh
Dropping an album called ColleGrove out of nowhere

In a group with the best rapper that's alive, ooh
Part of a duo with Lil Wayne, one of the best rappers today

Never turn my back on my slime, ooh
Loyal to his friends and collaborators

I ain't wanna fuck the bitch but she was fine, ooh
Wasn't initially interested in the woman but found her physically attractive

Hold up baby, let me take my time, ooh
Asking for time and not rushing into things

Hard to get some head and try to drive, ooh
Difficult to multitask between getting oral sex and driving

Jumpin' out the cake and that's surprisin', ooh
Coming out of nowhere and surprising someone

Pickin' up the duffel bag like exercisin', ooh
Picking up the bag full of money with strength and ease

Bought mama new house 'cause she deserve it, ooh
Buying his mother a new home because she deserves it

Practice makes perfect but nobody's perfect, ooh
Trying to reach excellence but nobody can achieve perfection

Escobar is not open for service, ooh
Paying homage to Colombian drug lord Pablo Escobar and indicating that his services are not available

Send you to Dr. Miami for your surgery, ooh
Referring to plastic surgeon Dr. Miami and offering to send someone there for a cosmetic procedure

Ooh, Riccardo Tisci on the crew neck
Having designer Riccardo Tisci's name on his shirt

Ooh, on a killin' rapper spree and nigga, you next
Killing his competition and indicating that someone else is next

Ooh, they talkin', chillin', watchin' Netflix (straight up)
People are talking, hanging out, and watching Netflix

Ooh, I used to trap and watch bootlegs
Before he was successful, he used to sell drugs and watch bootleg DVDs

Ooh, I'm on my wave like a durag
Being on his own path like a durag worn by black men

Ooh, I see your boo, now where your crew at?
Noticing someone's girlfriend and where their friends are

Ooh, talkin' Tequila for the pipe-up
Talking about drinking tequila before getting hyped

Ooh, I hope you got a clean vagina, yeah
Jokingly asking if someone has a clean vagina

Trench God, drench God, really
Being a god in the streets and making everyone around him drip in fancy clothing

Represent and we the squad, really
Representing his team and being part of the squad

TEC got the Rollie, now I get it
His friend TEC has a luxury watch and now he wants one too

I used to sell drugs for a living
His previous occupation was selling illegal substances

Got me a job sellin' records
Now selling legal goods as a job

Had to use my jeweler for a reference
Referring a friend to his jeweler

Might buy a truck with the extra
Considering buying a truck with the remaining money

Might use the legs for a necklace
Jokingly saying he could use someone's legs as a necklace

Don't stop trappin', boy
Advising someone to keep hustling and making money

Got 'bout twelve racks this mornin'
Making about $12,000 in the morning

Started last night, still goin'
Started hustling the night before and still going strong

Twelve racks strong
Being very successful and making a lot of money

Got the pitbull in the corner, she pregnant
A pregnant pitbull is currently in the corner

Got the crackhead in the corner, she pregnant
A pregnant person with a drug addiction is currently in the corner

Everybody in here pregnant, 'cept my partner and them
Jokingly saying that everyone in the room is pregnant except his partners and their companions

But we gettin' this money though, I'm tellin' you that
Regardless of the situation, they are making money and he is sure of that
